Call a Chandler AZ IRS Tax Attorney! I need to present my case to an IRS Appeals Officer.

Chandler AZ IRS Tax Attorney?

Not so fast, this is not a legal matter and does not need a Chandler Arizona IRS Tax Attorney.  You can present your own case or have an Enrolled Agent (E.A.) or an Attorney, CPA or your tax preparer present your case.  This is not a legal proceeding; and there is no judge.  It will just be you and the Appeals officer in a small informal room.  Many times this meeting can be handled over the phone if you are using a representative like Scott Allen E.A.  Scott has successfully negotiated settlements for less than you owe.  Scott will generally see how the Appeals officer wants to conduct the meeting.  Scott will usually start with a brief overview of the position he wants to establish and waits for the Appeals officer to ask for any documentation needed to verify your position.

If you want an IRS representative to present your case to the Appeals Office, contact Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300 for a free consultation and a reasonable flat fee.

Sometimes it isn’t necessary to go through the IRS appeals office either.  Michael and his wife got behind on two years of back taxes owed. They were getting advice from all directions and places on what do to about it. Some were telling him a payment plan, others to file an offer in compromise, and others to present the case to an IRS appeals officer. Before making a decision Scott Allen EA always councils to weigh the pros and cons of each option. Yes, you might be able to present the case to an IRS appeals officer but how long will that take?  Will it really be an option that will save you tax, interest, or penalties? Or will it just be something that a Chandler AZ IRS tax attorney can bill you a lot of hours for? Before submitting an IRS offer in compromise do your own research and verify if you are a viable realistic candidate or not. Everyone believes they are a candidate until they start to “plug in the numbers”.  Michael was a Chandler AZ taxpayer whole researched these options with Scott Allen EA but ultimately we discovered he didn’t qualify for either. With his income and tax debt size we needed to negotiate a low monthly payment plan. $185 per month! That is all Michael needs to pay to the IRS. He is a pretty happy camper about it too. Check out the letter below of the IRS accepting out proposal.

We are Mesa Arizona’s Top IRS Problem Solvers for Installment Arrangements

Mesa Arizona’s Top IRS Problem Solvers

Since 1977 Tax Debt Advisors in Mesa AZ has settled over 113,000 IRS tax debts.  One of the options to settle a tax debt is the IRS installment arrangement or IRS payment plan.  This option requires that all IRS back tax returns be filed and assessed.  Financial information will need to be collected and analyzed to determine what actions to take before going to the IRS.  For example, if you are driving an older car with lots of problems, it would be prudent to purchase better transportation before locking yourself into an IRS payment plan that doesn’t allow you that option afterwards.  In this instance you will want to keep your monthly car payment below the amount the IRS allows.

Other areas of planning might include purchasing a home before an IRS tax lien in Mesa Arizona prevents you from getting a mortgage or taking care of overdue dental or medical procedures that the IRS will allow as deductions to reduce your IRS installment arrangement or payment plan.  There are many considerations that will apply specifically to your situation that require the expertise of a Mesa AZ IRS resolution professional.  Scott Allen E.A. offers a free initial consultation and can explain how to posture yourself before committing to an IRS payment plan or installment arrangement.  Scott will also advise you of the pros and cons of all applicable IRS settlement options.  Call Scott Allen E.A. at 480-926-9300 to schedule an appointment.

John (a current client) received help from Scott Allen EA at Tax Debt Advisors to settle his IRS back taxes into a low monthly payment plan. All four years that he owed for were negotiated into a $290 per month payment plan.  This is just one of thousands of examples that could be shown.

Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. Will Release Your Phoenix AZ IRS Wage Garnishment today

Release Phoenix AZ IRS Wage Garnishment

A Phoenix AZ IRS wage garnishment or levy requires employers to withhold a high percentage of your paycheck and send it to the IRS.  If this is a surprise, then something is wrong because the IRS is required to send you numerous letters and notices before action is taken.  This aggressive action by the IRS should not be taken lightly.  The IRS really would prefer to have a settlement worked out with them that is much less invasive to your personal life.

An IRS wage garnishment in Phoenix AZ is not released until certain conditions have been met.  First, all tax returns need to be filed.  Secondly, the taxpayer must enter into one of several settlement options.  Once these two conditions have been met, your Phoenix AZ IRS wage garnishment will be released.  Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. has the expertise to represent you for a quick release.  Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. has represented employees at many companies including Salt River Project, Southwest Airlines, Vanguard Health Systems, and John C. Lincoln Heath Network.  Call for a free initial consultation at 480-926-9300.  You will be glad you did!

Phelipe Got his Phoenix AZ IRS Wage Garnishment released

You might be wondering how Scott Allen EA released Phelipe’s Phoenix AZ IRS wage garnishment. If you look at the notice below you will see that Phelipe owed for fourteen different tax years and over $229,000 in back taxed owed. Phelipe didn’t believe that the IRS would do anything to release or lower his wage garnishment. He figured he was stuck. But that was all before he met with Scott Allen EA at Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.

After a thorough investigation into his IRS account Scott Allen EA knew that he could immediately negotiate a settlement with the IRS and stop the wage garnishment before his next pay period. When he took a look at all of his current finances (income, expenses, debts, and assets) he knew he was a lock for a currently non collectible status. A currently non collectible status is one of the best settlement options the IRS has available. This means that Phelipe does not have to make any monthly payments or lump sum settlement payments on any of his back taxes owed. The catch? He has to file and full pay his future tax returns on time to keep the settlement in place. If he does not, the IRS will default it and a new arrangement has to be negotiated again. Per statute of limitations the IRS only has ten years to collect a tax debt from when the tax returns were filed. Many of these tax years are just a couple years away from “falling off” too.

This is a huge relief for Phelipe as you can imagine. With the agreement approved, the IRS released the Phoenix AZ IRS wage garnishment right away. It was faxed to his employer within hours (not days or weeks).  Time is precious if you are under an IRS levy or garnishment. Act immediately and call Scott Allen EA for proper representation. You will be glad you did.

Recent Success by Scott Allen EA on IRS CP-2000 Notice

Melissa received an IRS CP-2000 Notice on her 2020 tax return she prepared herself. Some information was not reported correctly on her taxes and the IRS sent her a notice of adjustment. She either needed to accept it or protest it. After a discussion with Scott Allen EA he determined that he could protest the IRS notice with an amendment tax return filing. This would correct the issue and remove the additional $10,000 of taxes they were assessing. See the IRS approval letter below of them accepting the amended tax return and removing their assessment.

Below is a recent success Tax Debt Advisors, Inc had for a Gilbert Arizona resident that needed IRS levy help.  Their personal information has been whited out, but as you can see Scott Allen EA was able to get the IRS levy placed on their bank account released the very next day after is was issued. In this situation, procrastination is what ultimately led to the bank IRS levy. This could have been avoided had the taxpayers responded to the IRS letters and phone calls. However, there is still hope even after the IRS had issued a bank or wage levy. As was mentioned earlier in this blog, for help give Scott Allen EA a call.

Tax Debt Advisors Protecting Assets from Chandler AZ IRS Levy

Chandler AZ IRS Levy

It is not possible to protect your assets for lengthy periods of time without doing something illegal. But there are certain actions you can take to protect yourself and your assets until you can get a settlement with the IRS and remove an IRS levy in Chandler AZ.

If you know a Chandler AZ IRS levy is going to happen you might consider transferring funds in a bank account to another bank.  Remember this is not to run from the IRS but rather to allow you to financially exist until you get matters worked out.  If the IRS inquires about what specific assets you have, you are required to tell them the truth.  However, it is not a crime to not disclose assets that they do not ask for. If you decide to move your bank account funds to another bank and do not initiate an IRS settlement soon thereafter, the IRS will assume you are not serious about getting your IRS matter resolved.  This can have serious repercussions later on.
Scott Allen E.A. of Tax Debt Advisors has the expertise to advise you on how to protect your assets from a Chandler AZ IRS levy while you are working towards an IRS settlement.  Tax Debt Advisors has been representing clients with IRS problems since 1977.  Call for a free initial consultation at 480-926-9300.
